KNOWING THE PURPOSE OF OUR EXISTENCE

 

Happiness is not the meaning of our existence. Your meaning is much greater than this.

Your Reality

Is your life simply to be born, grow up, find a job, have a family, enjoy your life, and then die? Is that all there is? Definitely not. We’re made for so much more. Your purpose of existence is to know God.

John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

After we die, the Bible says we’ll face God as our Judge. Have you ever rebelled (sinned) against God? Examine yourself by God’s Moral Law the Ten Commandments.

You shall have no other gods before me. (Have you kept God first in your life?)
Deuteronomy 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.

You shall not lie. (Have you lied even once?)
Proverbs 12:22 Lying lips are abomination to the LORD:

You shall not steal. (Have you ever stolen anything irrelevant of the value?)
Exodus 20:15 Thou shalt not steal.

You shall not take God’s name in vain. (Have you ever used God’s holy name as a cuss word (“Jesus Christ” or Oh my God”)? It’s called blasphemy.
Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

You shall not commit adultery. (Have you lusted after someone or had sex before marriage?) 
Matthew 5:27-28 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

You shall not murder. (Have you hated someone which is murder of the heart?)
1 John 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

In God’s courtroom, our sins are very serious crimes. He will even judge our words and thoughts. This how serious sin is to God. If you have violated any of God’s laws, you will be guilty on Judgement Day. The penalty of sin is death and you will end up in a terrible place called Hell.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Your Hope

However, the Bible says God is rich in mercy and in His great kindness He provided a Saviour. Jesus Christ took the punishment for the sin of the world. He died on the cross so that we could be forgiven, then He rose from the dead three days later and defeated death. Hundreds saw Him after His resurrection. It's no fairy tale. Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies about the promised Saviour, which are written in the Holy Scriptures hundreds of years before His birth.

Romans 5:8,9 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Your Destiny

All religions are man’s attempt to rid themselves of sin through religious rites, traditions, and good works. Attending church can’t save you; only a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. God doesn’t want you to go to hell. Neither do you want to go there. To receive everlasting life, believe, repent and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ alone to save you. God will forgive your sins and grant you everlasting life. God will give you a new nature (Born-Again) and He will walk with you through the Holy Spirit. Eternal life is a free gift. You can’t earn it by doing anything. Then read the Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:  

Blessing in Christ.

WHAT IS YOUR FIRST PRIORITY IN THE NEW YEAR?

 

Our first priority in everything is to thank God Almighty for the New Year, and God’s grace for bringing us through every tribulation and trial in every year. Thanking Him for all the miracles, blessings, more outreaches, witnessing the gospel on the streets, giving out gospel tracts, and to all those who prayed for us, especially our brothers and sisters in Christ.

We have goals, plans, and priorities like the importance of being in God’s word, praying, worshipping, and fasting, and being led by the Holy Spirit, especially for the work for the Lord that we are called to do—winning souls for Christ. We should not worry about anything because when we seek God first, trusting in Him that, according to His will, everything will fall into place.

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33 

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:5,6 

It is important to value the days that God has given us. One way to obey God is to redeem the time, being led by the Holy Spirit, especially for the work of the Lord, and to recognise the gift of our lives here on earth. Time—seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years; the fact that we have the privileges of being able to breathe, walk, talk, see, hear, taste, touch, and smell; and the gifts that God has given us that we sometimes take for granted each and every day. These blessings we have received freely from God Almighty.

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Psalm 90:12 

See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15,16 

How about you? What is your priority in the new year? Before you write down your goals and plans, maybe it would be better to examine yourself through the Ten Commandments.

If you obsessively want what somebody has, that makes you a covetous person.

And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. 

Luke 12:15

If you bear false witness, that makes you a liar.

A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish. Proverbs 19:9

If you stole anything, regardless of its value, that makes you a thief.
Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15

If you look at someone with lust, that makes you an adulterer at heart.
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 

Matthew 5:27,28

If you’ve admitted that you’ve done those things mentioned above, then you’re covetous, a liar, a thief, and an adulterer at heart. We've only looked at four of the Ten Commandments. That’s how God sees you; nothing is hidden from His holy eyes. You will be guilty before the presence of God and end up in His eternal prison, a place called hell.

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. Proverbs 15:3 

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 2 Thessalonians 1:8,9 

Nobody can keep the law (Ten Commandments), which is why Jesus Christ came not only to save us from our sins but also to fulfil the law.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Matthew 5:17 

The word ‘repent’ means to be sorry for who and what you are, to change your mind from the rejection of Jesus Christ to faith in Jesus Christ, to believe alone in what He has done for you on the cross, and through the death, burial and resurrection, to recognise that He is indeed Lord and Saviour, and His holy and precious blood will cleanse you from all sins that you have committed.

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. Acts 17:30,31 

And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. Hebrews 9:22 

You will then be a new creature in Christ (born again), filled with the Holy Spirit. Each day is a chance to turn the page on an old way of life and embrace a newness in Christ.

Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. John 3:7 

In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Ephesians 1:13 

Nobody is guaranteed tomorrow; please prioritize the free gift of salvation today. This should be your number one goal: to receive everlasting life.

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) 2 Corinthians 6:2 

Blessings in Christ

THE MOST PRECIOUS GIFT

 

As we enter the Christmas season, when many people are focused on giving and receiving gifts, we would like to tell you about the most precious gift anyone could ever receive because of its eternal value. The Bible says a virgin shall be with child, and He shall be called Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Matthew 1:21 

What does this really mean? Are we not good people? Do we really need someone to save us from our sins? To clearly understand what Christmas is about, we must try to look at ourselves the way God sees us, and the way we do that is examine ourselves by His Laws (Ten Commandments).

Have you ever lied? Have you ever stolen anything, regardless of its value? Have you ever used God's name in vain (as a cuss word)? Have you ever hated someone? Have you ever looked at someone with lust?

If you tell a lie, that makes you a liar (Revelation 21:8). If you've stolen anything, regardless of its value, that makes you a thief (Exodus 20:15). If you've used God's name in vain, you're a blasphemer (Exodus 20:7). If you hate someone, you're a murderer at heart (1 John 3:15). If you've looked at a person with lust, you're committing adultery in your heart (Matthew 5:27,28).

If you've answered yes to these five questions, by your own admission, you're a liar, thief, blasphemer, murderer, and adulterer at heart. We've only looked at five of the Ten Commandments; that's how God sees you; nothing is hidden from His holy eyes.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14

If God judges you by His standard, will you be innocent or guilty of breaking His laws (Ten Commandments)? Many people will admit to being guilty, but they may believe that God is good, that He forgives, and that He will overlook their sins. God is good, and because He is good, He will give a righteous judgment, or else He will be a corrupt judge.

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9,10 

You and I will be guilty when we stand before God, but God did something wonderful for us so that we wouldn’t have to go to hell. Do you know what that was? He sent His Son, Jesus Christ born of a virgin, perfect and sinless, to die for the payment of our sins on the cross, buried then He rose on the third day and defeated sin and death so that we could have everlasting life.

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Matthew 1:23 

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 
John 3:16 

That’s why Jesus Christ was born—"to save his people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21) and suffer punishment in your place. God’s word says that if you believe, repent, put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ as the only one who can save you, then God will forgive you because Jesus precious blood shed on the cross is more than enough to cleanse you from all of your sins.

I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. Luke 15:7 

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Ephesians 1:7 

Please don’t refuse this heavenly free gift of salvation from God, which is available to anyone: a love story written in blood on the cross over 2000 years ago. All glory to God for His incredible gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Those who receive this incredible gift of salvation through God’s love, mercy, and grace will never suffer the eternal punishment in hell that they deserved.

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 

May you find the true meaning of Christmas because it always begins with Christ.

Merry Christmas!

Blessings in Christ,

HOW CAN A SINNER BE JUSTIFIED IN THE SIGHT OF GOD?

 

A sinner can only be made right with God through faith in the substitutionary atonement through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The sinless Saviour laid down His life willingly, endured suffering, and died a horrendous death on the cross for the forgiveness of the sins of the whole world, but only those who would believe the gospel would be justified. Justification is when God makes sinners right in His sight when they believe and trust in Jesus Christ alone as their Lord and Saviour Romans 3:21-28.

Justification means that a believer is justified as if he or she never sinned in the sight of God. God doesn't just forgive you; He does more than that; He justifies you as though sin has never been committed and that it was done by the precious blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross through faith alone in Him.

Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:9 

Justification is the imputation of the righteousness of Christ to the repentant sinner. The sinless Saviour went to the cross as a substitute for all of us by taking the punishment of all of our sins, and only those who have appropriated the atonement are made righteous or not guilty in God's sight.

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. 2 Corinthians 5:21 

Justification is having peace with God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Romans 5:1 

Justification is when a condemned sinner who deserves eternal death is declared righteous in God's sight.

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:12,21 

The apostle Paul teaches that believers in Christ are not justified by their works but by God's grace and mercy.

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Titus 3:5 

Justification means that when you believe and trust in Jesus Christ alone as Saviour, you are sealed with the Holy Spirit and baptised into the body of Christ.

For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:13 

In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Ephesians 1:13 

Jesus Christ completed the work required for our justification on the cross. He said, "It is finished." the last words He spoke before He died on the cross, meaning the debt of our sins has already been paid.

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. John 19:30

The moment you humble yourself, believe, repent (change of mind from unbelief to belief) in what Jesus Christ has done for you on the cross, He laid down His life willingly so that you could be forgiven and defeated sin and death by His glorious resurrection. Only then are you justified, declared righteous or not guilty, and receive the free gift of salvation. You will then be filled with the Holy Spirit and born again (God will change you from within), and your place in heaven is prepared.

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Titus 3:7

We can only be justified by Grace Alone, through Faith Alone, in Christ Alone, Scripture Alone, for the glory of God alone!

 

Blessings in Christ.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

 

Everything you hold dear is going to be torn from your hands by death. Whether we like it or not, we are all part of the ultimate statistic: Ten out of ten die.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Hebrews 9:27 

Death happens because we have sinned and violated the moral laws of God. The Ten commandments.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 

With a tender conscience ask yourself if you have obeyed the following:

You shall have no other gods before Me. (Have you always kept God first in your life?)

Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3 

Thou shall not lie. (Have you lied even once? Including answering these questions).

A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape. Proverbs 19:5 

You shall not steal. (Have you ever stolen anything irrelevant of the value?)

Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15 

You shall not take God’s name in vain. (Have you ever used God’s name as a cuss word? “Jesus Christ or Oh my God”?)

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7 

You shall not commit adultery. (Have you lusted after someone or had sex before marriage?)

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 

Matthew 5:27-28 

You shall not murder. (Have you hated someone? Which is murder of the heart.)

Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. 1 John 3:15 

If you have answered Yes to any of these questions, by your own admission you’re a lying, thieving, blasphemer, adulterer, idolater and murderer at heart. That’s how God sees you: nothing is hidden from His Holy eyes.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14 

The Bible says that if we have broken even one of God’s commandments, we are guilty of breaking all His laws.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. James 2:10 

God is holy, just and righteous and will even judge our thoughts, word and deeds. This is how serious sin is to God. If you have violated any of God’s laws, you will be guilty on Judgement Day. The penalty of sin is death, and you will end up in a terrible place called Hell.

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Hebrews 10:31

However, the Bible says God is rich in mercy, and in His great kindness, He provided a Saviour, Jesus, took the punishment for the sin of the world. He died on the cross so that we could be forgiven, then rose from the dead and defeated death. God doesn’t want you to go to Hell. Neither do you want to go there. To receive everlasting life as a free gift, believe, repent, trust, and have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone and the sacrifice made through His precious blood shed on the cross through His death, burial, and resurrection.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:8,9 

God will forgive your sins and grant you everlasting life. God will give you a new nature (born-again), and He will walk with you through the Holy Spirit. Eternal life is a free gift. You can’t earn it by doing anything. Then read the Holy Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8,9 

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 5:24 

Blessings in Christ,

ARE YOU READY TO MEET YOUR CREATOR?

 

 

God Almighty is the Creator of the universe, heaven, earth, and everything therein.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Genesis 1:1

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. Colossians 1:16-17

When we think about our upbringing, teenage lives, 20s, 30s, etc. as if it were just yesterday, where has the time gone? Our life here on earth is temporal compared to our life in eternity. Yet only a few would think about their eternal destination. Instead, there are many who live a life of pleasure, vanity, or power or don't even care where their soul goes after they die. Many of all walks of life, rich and poor, have rejected the Lord Jesus Christ and His gospel with no regard for what awaits them after death. No one is guaranteed tomorrow.

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Matthew 16:26

Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. James 4:14

The reason we die is because we have sinned and violated the moral laws of God Almighty (the Ten Commandments). Human beings have a problem that cannot be ignored. We have all sinned against God.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23

Ask yourself: Have you ever lied?
A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape. Proverbs 19:5

Have you ever stolen anything regardless of its value?
Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15

Have you blasphemed God’s name?
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7

Have you lusted after someone?
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:27-28

Have you hated someone?
Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. 1 John 3:15

If you answered yes, by your own admission, you’re a lying thief, blasphemer, adulterer, and murderer at heart. Sin is so serious for a holy, just, and righteous God. We are all on death row; we have a big blue sky as our holding cell, great air conditioning, the privilege of everything we see and hear that God created, and the pleasure of eating and drinking, yet we are all standing in a line waiting to die, and it should be our greatest concern to know where we will end up after death. Our appointment with death comes with an unavoidable judgement.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Hebrews 9:27

Those who die in unbelief are unforgiven and will experience the eternal fires of hell, away from the presence of the Lord. Unrepentant sinners consciously suffer pain and thirst from an unquenchable fire, and the horror is so great that there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 13:42

But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him. Luke 12:5

Our Creator is the God of love and mercy and has provided us hope in our helpless state. He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, as a substitutional atonement to die for sinners. Jesus shed His precious blood to cleanse us from all our sins and save us from the wrath to come the moment we believe, repent and trust in Him through His death, burial, and resurrection.

And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 1 John 3:5

In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Colossians 1:14

Those who believe, and trust in Jesus Christ alone to save them are forgiven and will experience everlasting joy in heaven. When you are in Christ, you have great assurance of eternal security with Him. Only then can you be ready to meet your Creator.

I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. Luke 15:7

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. John 10:28

Blessings in Christ.

THE DECEPTION OF THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION

 

Charles Darwin, in full Charles Robert Darwin (born February 12, 1809, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England—died April 19, 1882, Downe, Kent), was an English naturalist whose scientific theory of evolution by natural selection (process that results in the adaptation of an organism to its environment) became the foundation of modern evolutionary studies (Encyclopaedia Britannica).

Paul Lemoine, a French geologist (scientist who studies the Earth, nature, materials, and processes), quoted, "Evolution is a fairy tale for adults".

The theory of evolution is not scientific. To be scientific, it must be observable and testable. You cannot observe or test something that supposedly happened millions of years ago. Evolution is not proven and cannot be proven. It has to be accepted by blind faith.

Evolution does not make any provision for male or female. In the pictures of evolution, from ape to man standing up slowly, there is no female. It is misogynistic; there is no reproduction without a female. God destroys the theory of evolution in the following verses.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:27 

But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. Mark 10:6 

God reveals Himself in His creation. People have no excuse for not believing that God created all things.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:18-20 

Most people who believe in evolution are atheists. The Bible says anyone who denies the existence of God is a fool.

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. Psalms 14:1 

They professed to be wise, yet they became fools. It is an issue of the human heart (sin).

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 

Romans 1:21,22 

The theory of evolution is a form of idolatry. Those who believe in evolution focus more on creation than the Creator. It is portrayed as science when it is not. Paul the Apostle says, "Avoid profane, vain babbling, and opposition of science falsely so called". Do not be caught up in the argument of evolution.

Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. Romans 1:25 

O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: 1 Timothy 6:20

When God created Adam, He breathed into His nostrils the breath of life, unlike when God created the heavens, earth, light, animals, and plants, etc. He spoke and they came into existence. Human beings were created in the image and likeness of God. We have dominion over the animals.

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7 

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26

Many people are deceived into believing that the theory of evolution is true because it gets rid of moral responsibility, meaning there would be no sin, no judgement day, and no hell. They believe that they are just primates or that they came from animals. There is a massive difference. People believe in justice, truth, and righteousness; they set up court systems and send people to jail for doing wrong; none of the animals do that. One day we will die. It is an appointment that cannot be rescheduled or cancelled. Whether we believe it or not, all of us are waiting for the judgement to come.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Hebrews 9:27

 

If you tell a lie, you're a liar.
Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight. Proverbs 12:22
 

If you steal anything, regardless of its value, you're a thief.
Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15

If you use God's name in vain, you’re a blasphemer.

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the
Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7

If you look at someone with lust, you’re an adulterer at heart.

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 

Matthew 5:27-28

If you're angry with anyone without a cause, you're in danger of judgement.

But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. Matthew 5:22

If you violate any of the commandments above (James 2:10), you will be guilty on judgement day and will go to God's eternal prison a place called hell.

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 2 Thessalonians 1:8,9 

Jesus Christ died on the cross so that your sins could be forgiven and defeated sin and death that you may have everlasting life with Him. His precious blood shed on the cross is sufficient to cleanse you from all sins (Ephesians 1:7).

Believe, repent and trust in Jesus Christ alone to save you from the wrath of God. You will be born again and filled with the Holy Spirit. Read the Holy Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Luke 13:3 

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:36 

Blessings in Christ.

David & Gay
